Скачать или смотреть Why Does God Allow Suffering? The Free Will Defense Explained

If God is all-good and all-powerful, why is there so much suffering in the world? This video unpacks one of philosophy’s oldest puzzles: the problem of evil. We’ll explore the classic Free Will Defense, see why critics say it falls short, and follow philosopher Peter van Inwagen’s “Story of Estrangement”—a deeper narrative showing how God and suffering might coexist. From natural disasters to the haunting “fawn in the forest fire” thought experiment, we’ll confront the hardest questions and leave you with one final challenge: is this defense enough?
